There's one outside the Silver Spring Armory (corner of Wayne & Fenton),
Saturday mornings from 7-noon or something like that (maybe 8-1, but all
the good stuff goes early).  Little or no organic stuff, last time i went
(last year), but some unusual fruits & veggies (e.g., figs & yellow
cherries).  There's one in College Park, off Calvert Rd. (cant remember
which parking lot it's in, maybe the Ice Rink?  not too far from
Kenilworth, on the left side of Calvert), also on Saturday mornings. I
wasnt very impressed with it last year: no organic stuff and most looked
like supermarket material even if it was grown on the Eastern shore.  OTOH 
 at least they had greens and okra......
